It’s natural for your appetite to shift with the seasons. So natural, in fact, that Lauren Slayton, R.D., a registered dietitian and founder of Foodtrainers®, has noticed a trend with her nutritional clients over the years.
“In the winter, clients tend to consume less fruit and fewer salads. [Instead, they] prioritize fiber and hydration,” explains Slayton, a wellness expert associated with Provenance, an Equinox Circle partner. “Cravings tend to be different in the winter. You may find yourself wanting warm, comfort foods. Soups, stews, roasted veggies, and dishes like turkey meatloaf and baked chicken parm are ways to satisfy yourself without sacrificing your health.”
Ahead, Slayton shares exactly what you should add to your grocery list this winter to account for all the foods you’re not craving, but all the nutrients you definitely still need.
